-Version 1.8.2-BETA:
+Version 1.8.3-BETA:
+ Fixed a bug with libntfs-3g extraction present since v1.8.1. Sometimes,
+ some Microsoft software would not correctly recognize data in the
+ resulting filesystem.
+
+ Made some small improvements to the compression algorithms:
+ LZX compression ratio was slightly improved.
+ XPRESS compression ratio and speed was slightly improved.
+ LZMS compression speed was slightly improved.
+
+ Improved handling of WIM XML data. wimlib no longer drops unrecognized
+ elements when exporting images. In addition, two API functions were
+ added for better access to elements in the XML document:
+ wimlib_get_image_property() and wimlib_set_image_property().
+
+ Added support for (unsafe) in-place compaction of WIM files.
+
+ Improved performance of image export by reusing metadata resources
+ instead of always rebuilding and recompressing them.
+
+ Improved performance of wimlib_update_image() by delaying the update to
+ the WIM's XML document until a write is requested.
+
+ On Windows, the target of an extraction may now be a reparse point.
+
+ Several improvements to System Compression (compact mode) support:
+
+ wof.sys (or wofadk.sys) is now automatically attached to the
+ target volume if needed.
+
+ Compact-mode extractions now work correctly with wofadk.sys on
+ older versions of Windows.
+
+ For compatibility with the Windows bootloader, the requested
+ compression format now is overridden on certain files.
